P2P can be very enduring, and after seeing more than one forum going away because someone with central control(whether owner or service provider) didn't care, the idea of not having central control is attractive. But I think that's more exposed than a forum since you're connecting to more people.

Still, some outside the box thinking is needed if we want places for our community that are really built to last. Hyphanet seems interesting, and there's probably a way to conveniently set up a newsgroup just with our emails.
